Mr. Richard Penn reports

Q PRECIOUS & BATTERY METALS CORP. BEGINS ACCESS CONSTRUCTION FOR DIAMOND DRILLING LA CORNE SOUTH PROJECT, VAL D'OR QUEBEC

Construction of access and drill pads has begun on Q Precious and Battery Metals Corp.'s La Corne South project located north of Val d'Or, Que. The company will construct 1.5 kilometres of excavated access and four drill pads in preparation for diamond drilling. The drill pads will allow for drill testing of two priority geophysical targets as determined by the company's exploration team.

First Class Diamond Drilling Inc. has been contracted to construct the new access and pads, and to undertake diamond drilling on the La Corne South project. First Class Drilling successfully completed the first three drill holes on the project in 2024, and Q Precious is delighted to have them continue with the 2025 drilling.

Diamond drilling of TDEM and magnetic anomalies in 2024 was successful at intercepting significant massive and disseminated sulphides containing copper, silver, zinc and gold (see previous releases of Jan. 20, 2025, and Sept. 9, 2024). This next phase of drilling on the La Corne South is designed to test similar geophysical anomalies approximately two kilometres south of the 2024 drilling. A permit amendment has been approved to allow access to these new target areas. Drilling is scheduled to commence next week.
